Gerry Fielding is celebrating, and why not? After all, not many 78-year-old drivers still are able to drive, much less rein a winner in a pari-mutuel contest as Fielding did in Wednesday afternoon s (June 30) Catskill Amateur Drivers Club pace at Monticello Raceway.
Driving 13-1 shot Back On Board N from the pole position, Fielding settled in fourth along the pylons as Rock N Roll Legacy (Joe Lee) led the field by the first stanza in :28. But when Lee began to back off the second quarter, Fielding was out and going, challenging for the lead by the half.
“When Lee began to back off the second quarter, I did not want to get caught in. So I moved first-up, and when we headed up the backside for the second time, I had cleared to the lead,” Fielding explained.
